50 Best Sushi Bars near Hackensack

“Everything was perfect. small place but big quality.👏🏻👌🏻.“

“Delicious food and very friendly service. Love to go there....“

“Put this place on the map!!!! A tried a true, best of the best, MUST go to spot when visiting (or living in) NYC. No exaggeration, my boyfriend and I haven’t stopped talking about this place since we visited last year. We’ll finally be back in town next month and are beyond excited to be dining with them again. Did we book a trip just to eat here!? Maybe… probably… because seriously, this place is exceptional. The owner is the sweetest, most delightful human with an incredible story and the food/service is an unmatched experience. Plus, you simply can’t beat their affordable omakasi prices…but the bigger bonus??? BYOB. Bring your wine, bring your tequila, bring neither or bring both. As far as I’m concerned, it’s a party in the most intimate sense. I never write reviews, but Sushi YOLO is a 10/10, so please, do yourself a favor and go see them before they earn that Michelin Star!“

“Absolutely amazing food was delicious and the attention of the staff unique.“

“Absolutely loved our experience yesterday. The basic omakase was delicious at $38, no hidden charges, and staff were lovely. Only slightly minor quibble was everything seemed a bit rushed and a little less peaceful than other places I've been to, but fair enough at that price. I was also a bit surprised at the rudeness of a customer talking on her phone when the staff were trying to engage her. That's not the restaurant's fault but maybe worth having a sign about using phones less and being in the moment more?!“

“Second to none! The ingredients are fresh and chef skills are world class.“

“Love the pad thai so much. Really authentic Thai kitchen. Thank you so much guys. I really enjoyed this!“

“The food was wonderful and the ambiance lovely. The service pretty attentive and cheerful. But the desserts were overpriced and not worth it. Try the udon noodle with mushroooms. . yumm.“

“Love this place — good, fairly priced sushi. They’ve also eliminated tipping, which I personally support, as I believe establishments should pay their employees fairly rather than relying on customers to supplement their income. The omakase is served at a fast pace, so it might not be ideal if you’re looking for a slower, more intimate dining experience.“

“Best sushi I ever eat in NYC“

“Excellent experience the food was amazing. The service was out of this world. It was impeccable.“

“Incredible food and service. Hard to believe it has been 1 year since the opening. Crave Sushi Bar is now an entrenched restaurant in this neighborhood. It is the best sushi experience in all of New York City. My wife and I are always felt welcomed at the restaurant.“

“Chef Andy was excellent!👍“

“14 course omakase for an hour“

“Sushi was amazing. My daughter is allergic to soy and our waiter was very helpful! Service was very good.“

“Simply superb. The fish and shellfish are pristine. The chefs are skilled and approachable. The servers are helpful and gracious. While not “inexpensive,” I believe it’s a value for what is delivered. I’ve been three times—just last night for the first time, I’m sorry to say, since COVID—and each time was exquisite. Beyond highly recommended. A treasure.“

“Exceptional goods/services from EXCEPTIONAL people.

It makes me very happy that this exists in a town/area that means a lot to myself and many others.

I encourage everyone reading this, whether you are in the mood for food, milk tea, or other treats, they have you covered here and with a smile and great conversations.

Bless the owners of this establishment that have spent their lives making the lives of others better via their hard work and tasty recipes!!!“

“You cannot beat their happy hour! Each piece of sushi is around double the size of your typical NYC piece. I also got the sushi tacos and those were fun and different from what I typically get. I also got a bottle of the cold sake. I will definitely be coming back here soon!“

“Place is quite nice. My friends enjoyed their meals very much. It is a bit tough finding vegetarian dishes here and I wish the restaurant kept at least one or two large vegetarian dishes that arent pork/beef broth based. However, this may already be known to people before they come in, so shouldn't detract from the review. Ambiance and service were great!“

“I tried the poke bowl, takoyaki, and tofu steak at Ooi Sushi Bar—and everything was so good and incredibly fresh. The poke bowl was flavorful with perfectly marinated fish, the takoyaki had that crispy-outside, creamy-inside texture that hits just right, and the tofu steak was a total standout—crispy, savory, and full of umami. Definitely a spot I’d come back to!“

“Best sushi I have ever had.“

“I took my family here and it was good. The price is super affordable and the food is not bad. There are a couple new employees that do not speak English very well but some do. The atmosphere is just amazing from traditional Japanese sitting to normal tables. I will defiantly recommend this place.

Vegetarian options: There is a little section labeled vegetarian and my daughter really enjoyed it.“

“Hands down one of the most enjoyable meals you’ll find in the city. The food is consistently incredible, but what really sets this place apart is the service and the sense of camaraderie you feel the moment you walk in. Nini is truly one of the best - warm, welcoming, and always makes our experience unforgettable. We have the best time every time. 10/10!“

“Went to Choo Choo Train with five friends. Ordered Miso Salmon entree and it was delicious. Salmon was grilled perfectly, broccoli and carrots were cooked well and still crunchy, and mashed sweet potatoes were yummy. Cannot say enough about food and attentive service. Will return...no doubt!“

“The best sushi I ever had.Friendly chef and attentive staff.“

“Watami Sushi is one of those spots you might walk past without noticing, tucked away on a busy Manhattan street--but trust me, it's so worth checking out. The staff are incredibly friendly, which makes the whole experience feel super welcoming. And the food? Amazing. The sushi is fresh and flavorful, and their omakase is such a steal for the quality you're getting.“

“This was our second visit to Noz Market. They never fail to impress and satisfy. The cuts of fish are large and wrap all the way around the rice. The nigiri are seasoned perfectly, skillfully and with precision. The chefs here truly practice the art of sushi. The two omakase options are reasonably priced, and you can add extra pieces at the end of the experience. My Japanese fiancée emphatically approves, which should tell you what you need to know about this restaurant. Not too difficult to make a reservation a few weeks ahead of time, but definitely make one in advance. We will most certainly return.“

“Great Omakase It will make you fell, that you are in Tokyo“

“So happy to have found this hidden gem. It is on the lower level of a building with a different restaurant just above. They have a large outdoor patio with heaters behind the building which is perfect for covid-safe dining. The food was fantastic, excellent sushi! Top quality fish, beautiful preparation and presentation and there are a few omakase options. The hoji tea panna cotta dessert was phenomenal as well. The price is definitely ‘special occasion’ territory for most but well worth it if you love sushi. Will definitely be coming back and hope others find this hidden gem!“

“Absolutely amazing! Mr. Nam makes the freshest, most tasteful sushi I've ever had. He's got a kind heart and is always so sweet to my kids. What a great place!“

“This is hands-down our favorite sushi place! It’s an intimate, family-run gem where you can truly feel the love and care that goes into everything—from the food to the service. The sushi is always incredibly fresh and delicious, and the atmosphere is welcoming and relaxed.

Our kids love coming here too. The friendly staff always makes them feel special, and the free ice cream at the end is such a sweet treat they look forward to every time.

We’re so grateful to have a place like this in the neighborhood. Highly recommend for anyone who loves great sushi in a cozy, family-friendly setting!“

“My first omakase and it was incredible. I wish I could eat more! 😅 it’s was so delicious, every ingredient super fresh, service was great. Wagyuni, akami and hotate were the best. The whole menu is amazing but those were my favorites. It melts in your mouth. The vibe is super cool. They are very friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend!!“

“Hands down best Sushi in New York City, perhaps the East Coast. Only problem is you leave wondering when you will get chance to visit again!“

“Hunted for an omakase restaurant on our NYC vacation. This is the best meal I’ve had in my life. Not exaggerating. Watching Jiro’s intense focus and passion for his craft makes the experience all the better. I’ll be back any time I’m in NYC.“

“We celebrated a couple of Birthdays and Mother's Day here. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. We came for brunch and pretty much had the place for ourselves. I had the Goda Harmony which consists of the Rock Shrimp, Miso Cod and Medley of vegetables. It was wonderful! 🤗 💕 Many of my party got the Chirashi, and they enjoyed their meal. Others chose the rolls. One ordered the Nyeumen - thin udon soup Bowl with shrimp Tempura. All very yummy!“

“My absolute favorite place in New York. Right across the Madison Square Park, this place has rhe most sumptuous food.
The Bone marrow, fried rice, edamame, sushi, the chops and the steak were outstanding.

The server Laveena was also really helpful.

The sushi in particular was superb. Especially the crispy rice one.

We went here about thrice. Totally worth it.“

“Great food & service despite how busy it was!“

“We stopped into Omakase Shihou (also referred to as Omakase Shiro) for their lunch omakase, tucked away on the second floor of Tenzan, a Japanese restaurant. The intimate space, clad in light wood, sets the perfect tone for a relaxed and refined experience.

The lunch omakase is an incredible value at just $49, including an appetizer, nine pieces of sushi, miso soup, and dessert. We opted to elevate the experience with the $25 add-on, which featured an oyster shooter, A5 wagyu, and a toro hand roll. Each of us also enjoyed a glass of sake for $18. While the base omakase alone is a treat—beautifully presented and absolutely delicious—the add-on is highly recommended.

Every piece of sushi was fresh, artfully prepared, and included a few delightful surprises. The ikura, which I don’t typically enjoy, was so exceptional I ordered an extra—truly a testament to the quality. No spoilers here—you’ll want to experience it for yourself.

The meal concluded with a comforting akamiso soup and a refreshing matcha mochi dessert topped with arare, a perfectly balanced finish to a memorable lunch. It was a wonderful prelude to an afternoon at The Met.

We’d absolutely return to Omakase Shiro—excellent service, serene ambiance, and exceptional food from start to finish.“

“We highly recommend ICCA Sushi, always fresh, delicious and worth every cent. This is a BYOB restaurant if you’re interested in eating in. I usually pick up. In the past during COVID they use to deliver. I am not sure if they do now. Absolutely, incredible! You can go for lunch and dinner if you want!“

“KaMe Sushi hit the spot. 🍣 Food was fresh, sushi pieces were solid, and the vibe was chill. Morea was my waiter and she crushed it—super cool, on top of everything, and made the whole experience easy. Good sushi + good service = I’ll be back for sure.“

“If you’re looking for incredible food, warm hospitality, and a cozy atmosphere, look no further than Roll House Dragon . This local favorite is truly a gem, and my recent visit reminded me why small-town restaurants often have the biggest heart.

The menu offers a fantastic variety of dishes, each crafted with care and packed with flavor. I started with the Dumplings , which was fresh, flavorful, and a perfect way to kick off the meal. For the main course, I opted for the chicken teriyaki bowl the flavors were absolutely divine, and the portion size was generous without being overwhelming.

What really stood out to me was the service. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure every detail was perfect. You can tell they take pride in creating a welcoming environment where everyone feels at home.“

“Recently tried the Las Vegas Sushi midweek lunch special. The Hwe-Dup-Bap was well made, with fresh ingredients, and served with miso soup. We will be returning.“

“We found this restaurant by accident, but I can see us making regular visits any time we come to NYC. Delicious food, cozy atmosphere, and a great staff. My poke bowl was incredible, and my husband got the sushi bento box. We’ll be getting the large saki during our next visit. We ate our food too quickly before it occurred to me to take a photo!“

“Amazing experience at Sushi Yasuda! My chef Moriyama from Kagoshima prefecture was perfect, a typical Kyushu man with a great personality and spectacular at serving up delicious sushi. My server Tsuzumi from Okinawa prefecure was also very attentive and did a fantastic job making sure we had everything that we needed. The whole team was amazing, I’ve eaten sushi in every corner of the world, including Japan, and I can safely say that Sushi Yasuda is up there with the best! Thank you again.“

“Honestly this is some of the best sushi I’ve had. Very friendly, accommodating, and good service. But it’s the fish. Fresh, creative, delicious. We’ll be back again, and again.“

“I had a wonderful experience at 34th and 8th avenue location. Bam did an amazing job putting my order together. He was very pleasant and assisted me with my selections. I was very happy with the service that I received and will come again soon. Thank you

Vegetarian options: Lots of different vegetables, Tofu, salad, rice and noodles“

“Really nice people and excellent sushi! Cute little place for a date and its byob“

“I came to TAKEDA after a friend mentioned they were serving ayu, the delicate and seasonal sweetfish of early summer. I'm so glad I listened—it was truly an exceptional dining experience.
Ayu was beautifully prepared both as sashimi and in a light, crispy fried preparation. Each showcased the subtle flavor of this rare fish perfectly. Other highlights included a clear soup with a crab meatball, which was refined, warming, and deeply flavorful. The seared bonito was outstanding—lightly smoked with just the right char, full of umami. The sushi courses were all elegant and balanced, with every piece showing thoughtful attention to harmony and texture. TAKEDA offers a quiet, focused experience where seasonal ingredients shine and every dish feels intentional. I’ll definitely be back.“

“It is a part of a small food court. Seems overall a popular very simple place. I took sashimi: salmon, tuna, yellow tail, and crab stick on a bed of shredded daikon and maybe carrot, separated by shiso leaves. Served with rice. I didn’t expect much and was impressed: fresh and tasty. Will return.“

“Morgan, the chef, has prepared a wonderful menu. We were staying in Midtown east and wanted a wonderful lunch. The restaurant is located on the lower level of Saks fifth Avenue.

The small space is decorated tastefully. The food and wine were superb. We love talking to the chef and were interested to hear how she came up with the menu. The service was fabulous and the team did a great job!“
